Hi Euro, Support for this NIC is available in Maverick 10.10 or newer releases, see the following thread:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2010-September/012629.html An SRU for Lucid 10.04 isn't likely going to happen due to some of the items discussed in the following thread: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2010-September/012521.html However, if you still want to run a Lucid environment but have a newer kernel which supports this NIC, I'd suggest trying one of the linux-lts- backport-<series> package, eg: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-backport-maverick https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-backport-natty For now I'm marking this Fix Released for Maverick and newer kernels. Thanks. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Maverick) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Natty) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Maverick) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Natty) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/804281 Title: Ubuntu 10.04 does not detect and install NIC driver for Intel 82579LM To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/804281/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
